Trump desperately pressuring Republicans who signed the Epstein petition before Grijalva signs it at 4:10 PM when it will then be too late to stop it.

The fact that Trump is calling Mace and Boebert today pleading with them to remove their names from the Epstein petition at the last minute tells you everything you need to know about how incriminating the info in the files is to him and his cronies.

I don't really know what this is - former Al-Qaeda offshoot leader turned President of Syria visits the White House, gets sprayed with Trump 'fragrance' & then gets to talk about wives. Please let me out of this through the looking glass world.

Then these senators are the ones Democrat voters must address.

Finally, his "in two weeks" project from nine years ago, had surfaced.
Or a foggy blueprint of it, given to scheming, extortion, and intended only for billionaires to profit from.

Yep, ithis is kind of a strange mirage.

When Trump wants to pardon a drug trafficker, befriend a terrorist, or praise a dictator because they did something to benefit him personally, when confronted with their past crimes he always either minimizes them or claims that they were treated unfairly. While Republicans just go along with it.

Yup. I said this earlier today, but it was only a guess. Thanks for confirming it. It is no coincidence that of the 8 who came forward to do this, none of them are running in 2026. But they ran cover for some who are.

@sanders.senate.gov: "We have already had 15 Republicans in the Senate defy Trump and say, 'Release the SNAP funds.' So I think that if we had held firm, it would be the Republicans who would yield. That was not the position of these 8 Democrats."

@sanders.senate.gov: "The message that came out last night is that some Democrats (remember, 47 people in the caucus, 8 voted, a small minority) that all over the country, people say, 'Stand up, fight, fight.' We had No Kings rallies, 7 million people coming out. And last night was a setback."

Unfortunately, he still serves as the minority leader in the senate.
This is from March.

Dems Reward the Hostage-Taker Perhaps ending the shutdown was the responsible thing to do. But by caving, Democrats risk legitimizing Trumpโ€™s maximum-pain shutdown tactics.

Elon Musk did go thru a "liberal period" before he turned back to the nazi, nutty, evil and seeking power and control over the rest of us, old tradition of his family, according to his father and what he said about himself.

I would like him to explain what post-liberalism is, according to his conservative vision.
Yarvin and Carlson were liberals, to his mind?

However, he continues to believe that Trump is a true conservative, a worthy and suitable leader for America.

History doesn't repeat itself. Today's Democrats aren't Abe Lincoln or FD Roosevelt. They aren't even LB Johnson, or JF Kennedy.

The Trump Administrationโ€™s Campaign to Undermine the Next Election The executive branch is interfering in U.S. elections in unprecedented ways.

The wholesale pardoning of criminals is a giant flip off to the rule of law โ€” including election deniers. Elect a felon, expect a crime.

The only way to get out ahead of this is to anticipate what his Trumpโ€™s criminal mind is planning nextโ€ฆ
